More

For females over 40, There’s a magazine called More. At least that is the age group It was first intended for. So many periodicals Are aimed at people younger. This magazine was perfect For that over-40 hunger. In articles the focus was On older women saying That life can be fulfilling Even when you’ve started graying. There wasn’t much for 60’s plus But still, they got some mention. If younger women felt left out, Well, that was the intention. Then suddenly, I noticed There had been a subtle shift And older women seemed to get An even shorter shrift. For More now advertises It’s for women 30 plus. I looked for protests, but nobody Seemed to make a fuss. I’m sure the younger women Have a lot of cash to spend And so the “over-40” aim Has sadly seen its end. So let me raise my voice For older folk and I’ll confess That though I’ll still read More I feel as if I’m getting Less!
